Clear Cygnus
“I tried a Clear speaker cable, and it was amazing, but outside of my budget. My dealer suggested I try a pair of Clear Cygnus. Based on the price difference, I didn’t expect Cygnus to stand up to its big brother Clear. But I was very pleasantly surprised! Cygnus packs a lot of punch and tons of detail, and outperformed everything else I tried in the same price category. By a lot.”

Cygnus Interconnect
Clear Cygnus Interconnect benefits greatly from the latest developments in the Clear product line, including a more economical version of Clear Beyond Interconnect’s air-tube suspension. This cable replaces Clear Light and brings added performance to the table without adding much to the price. Clear Cygnus is more detailed, but also slightly richer with better low
frequency performance. Clear Cygnus performs well in any system at any length, in both single ended and balanced configurations. If
you want Cardas musicality but with a neutral tonal balance, look no further.
​
Standard Terminations: Cardas GRMO or Neutrik XLR.
​
Design/Construction: Conductors: Matched Propagation Kevlar core, Grade 1, 99.9999% pure OFHC copper with
SPN clear coat (Litz), gauge sizes scaled to Golden Ratio proportions. Cross-field layer geometry,
insulated in double layered PTFE tape wrapped jacket.
Geometry: Star-Quad 4 conductor, with anti-static LDPE air-tubes bound with carbon impregnated PTFE tape wrap. Outer layer uses PTFE air-tubes scaled 1.618 times larger than the core tubes to suspend the composite shield of tinned copper and magnet wire away from the signal conductors. Finished in an ultra soft extruded TPR jacket.
Gauge: 4x25.5 AWG
Outside Diameter: 0.384”/9.76mm
Cygnus Speaker
It wasn’t easy to improve upon Clear Light without giving up it’s incredible value, but we did it! Clear Cygnus is more revealing, more holographic, and more refined. Matched Propagation conductors help to provide a very open and dynamic sound. In addition it can be internally bi-wired which wasn’t an option with Clear Light.
Standard Terminations: Cardas spades or bananas forged using 10,000psi
​
Design/Construction: Conductors: Braided Matched Propagation Kevlar core, Grade 1, 99.9999% pure OFHC copper with SPN clear coat (Litz), gauge sizes scaled to Golden Ratio proportions. Cross-field layer geometry, insulated in a PTFE tape and Electro-Dissipative dielectric.
Geometry: Concentrically braided four conductor surrounded by anti-static fibrillated polypropylene fibers. Outside jacket is a soft and flexible TPE rubber.
​
Gauge: 4x15 AWG
Outside Diameter: 0.695”/17.67mm

Cygnus Power
Like a scaled down version of Clear Beyond Power, Cygnus Power features three well shielded conductors, and a passive noise filter. Although designed for use with source equipment and small-to-medium sized amplifiers, Cygnus Power has the current handling capacity for even larger, tube powered amps. As you would expect, Cygnus Power pairs well with the rest of the Cygnus lineup, and provides many of the benefits of it’s higher-capacity siblings, at a fraction of the price.
​
Standard Terminations: Soldered and crimped Cardas power plugs with silver/rhodium plated solid copper contacts.
​
Design/Construction: Conductors: Grade 1, 99.9999% pure oxygen free tin plated copper, gauge sizes scaled to Golden Ratio proportions. Cross-field layer geometry, insulated in a
PTFE jacket.
Geometry: Double shielded with tin plated copper and
magnet wire. Twisted triad mixed with PVC air tubes bound with FEP tape wrap. Flexible TPR outer jacket.
​
Gauge: 3x13 AWG
Outside Diameter: 0.500”/12.7mm

Clear Cygnus Phono is detailed without any hint of harshness and has great low fre- quency performance. Clear Cygnus will help bring your analog to life. If you want Cardas musicality but with a neutral tonal balance, look no further. Custom terminations including Cardas R-DIN and SME 90° DIN connections are available.
Standard Terminations: Cardas S-DIN to Cardas GRMO, or RCA to RCA. Hand soldered in Bandon, Oregon.
